Havadtoy Exhibition Pays Tribute to Kertész

English

The exhibition, entitled Hommage á André Kertész, will pair Havadtoy's Distortions, a series of distorted male nudes, with images of distorted female nudes from Kertész's camera in the 1930s.

 
"Havadtoy has taken advantage of mirror distortions to return to the visual forms and signs that inspired Kertész's images, opening up a magical and mystical, yet also grotesque and shocking visual world," Hungarian Photography Museum director Péter Baki writes in the exhibition catalogue.
 
Havadtoy paid tribute to the artists Andy Warhol and Agnes Martin in two earlier series of paintings.
